/d Reset to combo performer

Enhancement Proposal:
When you use the command /d it resets back to defaults, but instead of resetting to the m (material) performer, it should be reset to the c (combo) performer.
Suggested usage:
Combo is set as default. When you do /d and want to then snipe combos, you won't have to type /p c.
Reason of proposal:
It would be useful, since often times I (and others from what I hear) reset to defaults and then later want to use a combo but have to type /p c to use it instead of just being able to select your voxel and ink.
But then I have to manually reset my combo / I see this prone to the vs range problem. Where people turn it on & forget they did. In this case, I see the problem being people sniping without realizing they have a combo on. This would probably result in more grief because then people have to type multiple commands to make something simple. If it's a harder task then it makes more sense for that task you type out more commands.
I see the reason though. Honestly I think we need another reset command that does this, and possibly add /vs range to /d as well.
I don't use the combo performer very often. (I don't use Sniper very often these days, though.) A lot of tasks are possible using simply the mat performer. So.... an adequate solution - at least from my point of view - is to automatically set the combo performer if the sniper sets his /vi or /vir and he has only the material performer set.
I have to agree. I think this should reset some more things, which it does not currently.
I definitely agree with the OP / this issue.
If you want the "simplest" thing to be the default, then go ahead and make material performer the default. That would be fine, too (although less useful IMO). But right now it isn't, and when you type /d for "default" it needs to actually go to the DEFAULT, whatever that is. The definition of "default" clearly implies one value, not multiple different values, and people need a stable, known base to fall back on.
For the same reason, we also need to make /d turn off /vs range. The fact that it doesn't has easily wasted 3 hours of my time on the server, all added together over time, being confused why my brushes weren't working, or encasing myself in stone...
